Some close ups of the head



Overview of body.



Look, they've even included the spurs on the feet. The underside shimmers.



Here's the official Safari Ltd page for this figure: http://safariltd.shptron.com/p/wild-safari%C2%AE-wildlife-platypus?pp=12&pp=12

Nice. Can I ask how many animal figures you own? (Not counting the prehistoric kind) :)

They came flying from far away, now I'm under their spell....

Not very many! Only about five until I started this forum.

I recently had a delivery of wild animals from Safari, which I will photograph for this section of the forum, but I won't keep them, as they will become prizes for the upcoming diorama contest :)

I can't say as I haven't seen the Papo one in person. But this one is brilliant!

The WS Platypus is an amazing figure. I've seen the Papo version in a toy store - it's good but I still like the Safari figure better. :)

I like this Safari Platypus more than the Papo. The Papo is good though. The other one I like a lot is the Mojo Fun. It is really nice. Not quite as detailed as the Safari. But it is smaller (I like smaller). The Safari is a tiny bit large, but it is still the best sculpted (in my view).
